MAFS UK viewers make one request as first dinner party descends into chaotic 'clusterf**k'

Viewers of Married First Sight UK have one specific request for the production team after watching last night's disastrous dinner party episode.

The chaotic reality show is pretty self explanatory - it really is as simple as two complete strangers getting married within minutes of meeting each other.

The newlyweds then embark upon a honeymoon, living together and meeting each other's friends and families before deciding whether or not to renew their vows and make it work in the outside world.

Despite the MAFS format ringing alarm bells, there have been some success stories over the years - and the show is also hugely popular in the United States and Australia.

During last night's bombshell dinner party episode (25 September), the spouses had just moved into their new digs and met up with the rest of the cast to reconvene over recent events.

There was plenty of drama afoot after bride Sacha Jones, married to Ross McCarthy, revealed that Alex Henry said he'd be open to swapping brides with another groom if he didn't like who he ended up with.

Alex was married to Holly Ditchfield - and things seem to be going alright between the pair.

Though she didn't like hearing that he'd been up for recycling her.

Explaining his thought process, Alex said: "I said, if I don't like my wife, I'm not gonna pursue something with somebody I don't like."

Holly called it 'bad vibes', leading Alex to say: "You're coming at me sideways.

"If you're only going to keep talking over me, the conversation is done."

Holly then voiced her fears Alex would leave her for 'someone better', to which Alex responded: "I don't think I can move past this."

As the drama unfolded during what was supposed to be a lovely reunion dinner, viewers took to social media to express their belief that most of the couples are badly matched.

One person wrote: "The experts need to scrap this whole cast and go again, I’m being so for real #MAFSUK."

Another said: "From the looks of things only two couples like each other…all the others clearly hate one another. never seen so much chaos so early on before! #MAFSUK."

While a third added: "#MAFSUK good grief that was a clusterf**k. But on the plus side it didn't take long for most of the toxic men to shit in their hands and clap. I just really hope the women they're paired with don't fall for the inevitable gaslighting or love-bombing that will inevitably follow."

Married at First Sight airs every Monday to Thursday at 9pm on E4.
